Can You #XMasAMovie From Another Genre?

Mom mixed my wrapping paper w/ my older bro's. I opened Eurotrip Unrated, not Ghostbusters. I was 7.
A couple of years ago my family didn't get a tree till the 23rd.... And it didn't come down till March
One year I received a iPod box expecting to get one when it first came out and then when I opened it.. A bar of soap
One year I had to re-open a gift so my dad could film the reaction because the camera was off the first time. Sandy Claws
Sister bought a xmas tree, it didn't smell enough like pine so she doused it in air freshener needles fell off immediately.
Today my mom told me, "We're doing useful presents this year. We got you a book on how to find a man."
One year the man I was dating gave me an expensive necklace with my name in gold. It was beautiful, but my name isn't Diane
Last Xmas my dad printed off my brothers internet history from the past year & made it into a book for the familys enjoyment.
One year my cat ate all the tinsel off of our tree. The tree lost some of its shine, but my cat had some really pretty poops!
One year my great grandmother spent the entire day at the neighbors mistaking them for our family. No one said a word.
yeah, you don't want those Christmas lights on your tree.
My grandma made a pie and forgot the sugar. We put it outside and the dog ended up peeing on it.
My aunt told me when she was young, her brothers got everything she asked for on Christmas
School sign
How does this even happen?

Still blocks me from facebook That's not necessarily a bad thing - Facebook is a not trusted site in so many ways.

Now FF locks out YouTube ....

Now FF locks out YouTube .... and add-on’s from their own drop down menu
To: SkyDancer
You can either try to start Firefox in safe mode by holding down the shift key while starting Firefox, which then disables all add-ons, to see if it’s an add-on causing the issue.
Or you can reset Firefox, which will give it a new default user profile with no add-ons added yet. Again, you can choose either of these options by holding the shift key, when you start Firefox and you’ll get a pop up box asking which you want to do.
OR, you could completely uninstall Firefox.
Then search for and remove any mozilla files/folders
Then download and reinstall fresh firefox. Make sure not to import anything from IE (except maybe your favorites).
See if that works.

Did you do an upgrade recently?
I did, and my computer just would not recognize my browser.
Hubby did some magic and got everything beaten into shape,
and all is well now. He actually had to go on his computer
and get the instructions for solving the problem, which is
apparently common since four pages of troubleshooting lore
spewed out to help him fix things.
It’s fine now. Hubby is a great guy.

K, did the shift key thing and still won’t go to YouTube, get that block error as unsafe ...
To: Lucky9teen
Well I totally removed FF and reinstalled it ... still the same thing, can’t get to FB or Youtube ... don’t know about other sites yet ...
To: Lucky9teen
And now FF won’t let you add on anything from their pull down menu ... says it’s an untrusted site. I hate IE and don’t want to use that ...

I would try a System Restore. Do you have Windows 7? Do you know how to do the System Restore?

I have W7 and the last time I ok’d a restore I had all sorts of problems getting my stuff back again ...
To: SkyDancer
Unless you installed a boat load of stuff between now and when you first started having the FF problem, you shouldn’t lose anything, except Windows updates that were done.
I’ve never had a problem myself, losing stuff. Your personal files should all remain intact and anything you’ve worked on, even up to today, should still all be there.

When I was a tot, my parents put boot-prints from the fireplace to the Christmas tree to prove to us kiddies that there really WAS a Santa. My mother was distinctly displeased with me for pointing out to my siblings that there were no boot-prints going BACK to the fireplace...

By the time I was seven years old, everyone else in my family
was an adult. I never believed in Santa Claus. My jaded older
siblings disabused me of that when I was very young. I missed
a LOT of my childhood innocence being raised in a houseful
of adults who didn’t care what I saw or overheard.
